    @Blizzard_Ent waited for overwatch 2 for years. Blame a DDOS attack. I can see where all that money went. Fix your ****!

  • EliAs_0507 Eliasnov (@EliAs_0507) reported

  • GuidinglightNw Guiding Light Novelworks (@GuidinglightNw) reported

    Love how Overwatch 2 is getting so much hate that it's being repeatedly DDOS attacked and the servers are barrel of cold piss. Meanwhile I'm just sat playing Paladins, which is damn near identical, except it works, has always been free to play, and has Team RWBY in it.

  • dynamitekid46 glen constantino (@dynamitekid46) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent it’s funny how blizzard refuses to give updates on this supposed DDOS attack preventing the hard working people who spent there money on overwatch 2 and are unable to play it. Keep your customers informed before they decide to get there money back.

  • smooth_spy Assumption Man (@smooth_spy) reported

  • BjornSilencer Bjorn 🛡 (@BjornSilencer) reported

    Anyone else having problems with Overwatch 2?

  • DrewNewtype Drew Bootype (@DrewNewtype) reported

    Overwatch 2's launch is a disaster for issues their fault and not, but ya'll turning heel on it just because of a few days of login issues makes you look like absolute giant babies.

    @BlizzardCS @PerlyPixels Overwatch: error 40000 people can’t get into our game also overwatch:fix happi genji skin

  • lukeyp95 lukeyp95 (@lukeyp95) reported

    Feel sorry for all the folks trying to play Overwatch 2 recently. Not cause of launch issues or anything but because you’re willingly playing Overwatch 2

  • YuriFerrazLima Yuri Ferraz Lima (@YuriFerrazLima) reported

    Blizzard why did you mess up so badly the Overwatch 2? Now I can't play my favorite game... Now what we have is lag, crashes, and I can't even login.

  • AubreyZombie aubrey(◍•ᴗ•◍) (@AubreyZombie) reported

  • JoeFlo11 BOOMERjose (@JoeFlo11) reported

    @OverwatchEU @BlizzardCSEU_EN This is a sign that I won't attempt at launching overwatch 2 at all since everyone has a problem like every game. I have patience so I believe the team will do their best I have faith in them

  • traviebird00 Artist Formerly Known as Derrick Henry’s Stiff Arm (@traviebird00) reported

    @aaronkellerOW Was it a DDoS attack when original D2, D3, the D2 remake AND overwatch 1 all had brutal launches? Sorry, this just all seems really on brand for anything Blizzard is involved with

  • AgentOttsel Agent Ottsel ⚡ (@AgentOttsel) reported

    My Overwatch 2 experience so far: - Start the game, there are 499 players ahead of me in the queue. Wait a bit, then get a Failed to Connect error. - Try again a few hours later. 599 players ahead of me, but the number starts going down until it's finally my turn, except...

  • dai_mond__ demodai (@dai_mond__) reported

    i literally can't login to overwatch wtf

  • VivaLaVince1 Vincent 🎃 (@VivaLaVince1) reported

    @OrdinaryGamers It's not a DDOS It's just people really want to play this game lol like XQC had over 100k watching him and im guessing they was trying to logging in aswell It's just blizzard crap servers it happened to overwatch origins at launch too

  • kang_pirate Dekang 🇺🇸 (@kang_pirate) reported

    dude what the heck is wrong with hit registering in overwatch 2? I could be unloading at point blank and get zero damage, fix this bullshit

  • Hat3rs_C00l Evan Sherman The Goat (@Hat3rs_C00l) reported

    @Qwik joke of a person, joke of a company. Full 24 hours passed yet no updates for the server problems for overwatch 2. What a ****** joke. Mike if you were in front of me, I’d spit in your face you ******* ******. Leaving the community in the dust

  • FredSmith914 Fred Smith (@FredSmith914) reported

    I love hanging out in the Overwatch 2 queue. Hottest spot in town. Nothing like waiting to see what error messages I’m going to get in 25 minutes this time.

  • DeeDoesPlays DeeDoesPlays - World Class Trash (@DeeDoesPlays) reported

    Two things about Overwatch 2. 1. There's blatant cheaters on day one and that is depressing. 2. Fix your servers please.

  • Untitled_VIP peaceofgarbage.eth 🟢 (@Untitled_VIP) reported

    day 2 of overwatch not working .... whyyyy blizzard

  • Travjlee101 HondaCivic (@Travjlee101) reported

    @TheActMan_YT It always done that with Overwatch. If you fail to log in due to server issues, it asks for your log in details. No idea why, it just always been like that.

  • Ysrr_xx beja (@Ysrr_xx) reported
